The pathogenicity of two bovine field strains of virus for indigenous goats was examined in the laboratory. The goats failed to develop clinical disease or become virus carriers although the majority showed a definite immune response. A field survey in a foot-and-mouth disease enzootic area showed that the indigenous sheep and goat populations were frequently exposed to infection as evidenced by a high proportion of sero-positive animals but the incidence of virus carriers was very low in goats and no carriers were detected in sheep.
在实验室中检测了两株牛源病毒野毒株对本地山羊的致病性。尽管大多数山羊表现出明确的免疫反应,但它们并未出现临床疾病或成为病毒携带者。在一个口蹄疫疫区进行的现场调查显示,本地绵羊和山羊群体经常接触感染,血清阳性动物比例很高就是证明,但山羊中病毒携带者的发生率非常低,绵羊中未检测到携带者。
